Kansas SB399 exempts judicial branch and district court employees from unauthorized practice of law when providing standard forms to the public.

Kansas SB399 amends the Kansas consumer protection act to exempt employees of the judicial branch or a district court from the unauthorized practice of law when they provide a standard form to a member of the public. These employees can rely on the assumption that the information provided by the public is accurate and are not responsible for any incorrect information on the form. The bill also repeals the existing section K.S.A. 50-6,142 and amends it to include this exception.
